Louisiana College ranked 3rd most affordable Christian college

March 11, 2016

By Louisiana College communications

Christian Universities Online (CUO) has ranked Louisiana College the third most affordable Christian college in the United States and included LC in the category of “50 Best Value Christian Colleges and Universities” for 2015 – 16.

“Though the two are related, there is a distinct difference between affordability and value,” said Dr. Rick Brewer, president of LC.

“We have worked hard to close the affordability gap by making our rates competitive with public institutions,” he said. “Our differentiating value proposition, however, is that we offer academic rigor with curricula that are founded on a Christian worldview.”

“We are intentional about offering the best education possible at a reasonable cost,” Brewer continued.  “We do this primarily because we believe what Colossians 2:3 says about ‘all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge’ being in Jesus Christ.”

“That so few schools are on both lists speaks to how God has blessed LC, and to our commitment to prepare graduates and transform lives for kingdom growth,” Brewer said.
